The digital version of Holistic Healthy Life Education" (e2HLE) is a holistic, person-centric, multi-component and lifestyle modification intervention that we developed, alongside the WHO integrated care for older people (ICOPE) model and a home-based self-monitoring bio-signals system "Hera Leto". This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of e2HLE intervention for achieving weight loss and enhancing self-care and intrinsic capacity (i.e. psychological and mental wellbeing, vitality and nutritional health) as well as improving cardio-metabolic profiles (e.g. blood pressure and lipid profile) compared to usual care.

Before the intervention commences, they will take pre-blood test and further receive the e2HLE with Hera Leto for three months. During the intervention, participants will attend (1) nine weekly workshops pertaining to WFPB diet, exercise, fitness and self-acupressure, and meditation and mindfulness and followed by weekly tele-counselling sessions; (2) three process evaluation practice sharing sessions in the format of focus group, making up a total of twelve sessions. The process evaluation practice sharing sessions will be audio-recorded; (3) mutual support networking platform will be held between case managers and participants within Hera Leto system. |
